Wow, just read this since I am not a LCCA member and did not know Lou. How tragic, such an early death. My condolences go to his family, and the LCCA. Tom Tee has it right, our memories allow people to live on and provide comfort and a sense of belonging. My Dad passed about 4 yrs ago but I still feel he is here because of memories.
The LCCA won't be the same for quite a while without Lou's presence and leadership.
